Vasavada In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 1998 (Submitted May 18, 1998) II © 1998 Ashwin R. Vasavada All rights reserved Ill Philosophy is written in this grand book -- I mean the universe -- which stands continually open to our gaze, but it cannot be understood unless one first learns to comprehend the language and interpret the characters in which it is written. It is written in the language of mathematics, and its characters are triangles, circles, and other geometrical figures, without which it is humanly impossible to understand a single word of it; without these, one is wandering about in a dark labyrinth. - Galileo Galilei, II Saggiatore The heavens are telling the glory of God; And the firmament proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours forth speech, And night to night declares knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words; Their voice is not heard; Yet their voice goes out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. -from Psalm 19 (RSV) When I heard the learned astronomer, When the proofs, the figures, were ranged in columns before me, When I was shown the charts and diagrams to add, divide and measure them, When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture room, How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, Till rising and gliding out I wandered off by myself In the mystic moist night air, and from time to time, Looked up in perfect silence at the stars.

  • The Museum Program, 1964-1982
    CHAPTER FIVE 173 THE MUSEUM PROGRAM, 1964-1982 During the 18 years reviewed in this chapter the exhibit function of park museums remained in the spotlight. The National Park Service considered museums principally as interpretive media rather than as essential custodians of basic park resources. Substantially more money and manpower went to provide displays than to manage collections. Exhibits, however, had to fit into a new interpretive equation in which audiovisual elements became a prime factor. The first half of the period brought unprecedented growth to the national park system. Under a director gifted with promotional skills the system gained 78 parks totaling about 4,200 square miles in area. They came in faster than adequate funds to study, develop, and operate them. Actively promoted special interpretive goals demanded much staff effort. Amid growing perceptions that the natural environment was gravely endangered, public officials and private organizations rallied opposition to numerous exploitative proposals and practices. The Park Service made its contribution by launching an environmental awareness program. This involved all levels of staff, extended far beyond the usual audience of park visitors, and threatened to inject propaganda into museum exhibits where policy traditionally called for impartiality. At a time when New York City faced imminent bankruptcy, American cities generally wrestled with critical economic and social problems. The Service reacted with new urban park programs. Park staffs could measure the intensity of the emphasis by the degree to which experience in urban situations aided career advancement. Enthusiastic encouragement for developing "living history" as an interpre- tive method in the parks coincided with a wave of official and public interest in the performing arts.

  • Accessible Carbon on the Moon
    ACCESSIBLE CARBON ON THE MOON APREPRINT Kevin M. Cannon Department of Geology and Geological Engineering & Space Resources Program Colorado School of Mines Golden, CO 80401 [email protected] April 27, 2021 ABSTRACT Carbon is one of the most essential elements to support a sustained human presence in space, and more immediately, several large-scale methalox-based transport systems will begin operating in the near future. This raises the question of whether indigenous carbon on the Moon is abundant and concentrated to the extent where it could be used as a viable resource including as propellant. Here, I assess potential sources of lunar carbon based on previous work focused on polar water ice. A simplified model is used to estimate the temperature-dependent Carbon Content of Ices at the lunar poles, and this is combined with remote sensing data to estimate the total amount of carbon and generate a Carbon Favorability Index that highlights promising deposits for future ground-based prospecting. Hotspots in the index maps are identified, and nearby staging areas are analyzed using quantitative models of trafficability and solar irradiance. Overall, the Moon is extremely poor in carbon sources compared to more abundant and readily accessible options at Mars. However, a handful of polar regions may contain appreciable amounts of subsurface carbon-bearing ices that could serve as a rich source in the near term, but would be easily exhausted on longer timescales. Four of those regions were found to have safe nearby staging areas with equatorial-like illumination at a modest height above the surface. Any one of these sites could yield enough C, H and O to produce propellant for hundreds of refuelings of a large spacecraft.

  • Commercial Lunar Propellant Architecture a Collaborative Study of Lunar Propellant Production
    Commercial Lunar Propellant Architecture A Collaborative Study of Lunar Propellant Production 1 To the Memory of: Dr. Paul D. Spudis (1952–2018) Dr. Spudis earned his master’s degree from Brown University and his Ph.D. from Arizona State University in Geology with a focus on the Moon. His career included work at the US Geological Survey, NASA, John Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory, and the Lunar and Planetary Institute advocating for the exploration and the utilization of lunar resources. His work will continue to inspire and guide us all on our journey to the Moon. “By going to the Moon we can learn how to extract what we need in space from what we find in space. Fundamentally that is a skill that any spacefaring civilization has to master. If you can learn to do that, you’ve got a skill that will allow you to go to Mars and beyond.” ii Authors David Kornuta, United Launch Alliance, CisLunar Project Lead1 Angel Abbud-Madrid, Colorado School of Mines, Professor of Space Resources Jared Atkinson, Honeybee Robotics, Senior Geophysical Engineer Jonathan Barr, United Launch Alliance, Program Manager Gary Barnhard, Xtraordinary Innovative Space Partnership, CEO Dallas Bienhoff, Cislunar Space Development Company LLC, Founder Brad Blair, NewSpace Analytics, Managing Partner Vanessa Clark, Atomos Nuclear and Space, Chief Executive and Technology Officer Justin Cyrus, Lunar Outpost, CEO Blair DeWitt, Lunar Station Corporation, CEO and Co-Founder Chris Dreyer, Colorado School of Mines, Professor of Space Resources Barry Finger, Paragon
